One highlight of Gallagher's
The following year, Gallagher was invited to spring training, where the Tigers wanted him to work on his curveball in an effort to get him back on the MLB roster. However, he ended up not making the varsity, and 1962 became his only year in the majors.[7]
After his playing career, he served in the United States Air Force during the Vietnam War.[1] In later life, he coached American Legion Baseball.[1]
